Open means "uben" in german so
Free Libre Open Source Software is FLUSS in german and that roughly translates to "fucking" and I think that's beautiful.
Wrong on... pretty much all accounts
That is incredibly wrong
Open in German is "offen," and Fluss means "river" (or "flux"), so ... no.
yeah i know i was joking
maybe it wasn't a good joke ^^
It wasn't funny, but fun for Germans, cause it gave them a chance to correct you and explain their language.
Maybe it was by German standards
The book of German humor is incredibly thin.
No it is not, it as an extremely long book with thousands of pages. It just isn’t funny.
